Playin' blues without the blues, country from the urban sprawl and now gospel without ever readin' the bible, the boat has been rocked without ever ridin' the big waves. This gap year or three will not dampen the spirit... but there's a lot more watchin' the weather and songs are being listened to more then being played- but songs will always be rit. With face and clothes well worn the track was set for a new record- most shows played to the least amount of people... well that's no bother coz happiness is just perspective. Now a teacher of six strings to the young impressionables also infected with the same desire to satisfy the sound machine... I say thankyou, for it is their six strings that will be saving the world from the saviours of the world. As a believer of somethin', it's not for others to say what that is... and besides I'm not sure what that is coz it's always changin'. Change can be a beautiful thing especially nearing the end of a winter up in these hills high. Being a dad is cool 'cept I'm supposed to know more than before... should of paid more attention and exercised retention of the passing backyard philosophers. It's never too late to invent your own spin... so here's my latest- treasure to some and mystery to others... or maybe it just fills the gap in the wall. Warm thanks to friends and family. Special thanks to my co-conspirators; Dave Lokan, Mike Kirkham, Kim Perry and Paul Howie for the sound and flavour. Another type of thanks to the two new guys and Jess... this one is for them.
